The Office
9/8c NBC
Ryan Howard refuses to be a heavy hitter (as opposed to the other Ryan Howard, the Phillies' home-run king). Once a corporate young gun who rose to the top echelon of Dunder Mifflin, Ryan's fall from grace landed him right back to low-rung status in Scranton. Now he's bitter, lazy, biding time, and refusing to do work. This, of course, grabs the attention of cocaptain Jim, who clashes with the ace slacker. But in the main event, bigwig David Wallace (Andy Buckley) summons a jubilant Michael to attend a shareholders meeting in New York City. Tagging along on the trip: Andy, Dwight and Oscar.
Read on for previews of Terror in Mumbai, Fringe, Project Runway and Private Practice.

I'd like to know if there will be an evolution in the Abby/Gibbs relationship on NCIS this season. — Lucia
ADAM: Are you one of those Gabby 'shippers? Because if so, ew. In any case, executive producer Shane Brennan sounds delighted about an arc he has planned for Abby this season — and says Gibbs plays a big part in it. "[Abby] does have a special relationship with Gibbs, [who has changed] because of the journey he has taken over the past two-and-a-half seasons," Brennan says. "Most people will see that Gibbs smiles more now; he's kind of warming up. There's certainly more to learn about the relationship between Gibbs and Abby, and we play toward that in this special arc of Abby's."

All was hardly well when we left Oceanside Wellness in May: Violet lay dying after her disturbed patient Katie had literally cut the baby from her womb and made off with him. Season 3 begins tonight with Amy Brenneman still in the cast. As for Violet's suitors (Pete won, remember), check out the Pete-Sheldon body language during their hospital vigil. But don't expect any romantic developments involving Addison and Noah: She's too busy in the ER to have time for much else.
